Allergies and Your
Immune System

Why a healthy immune system is so important to your fitness results – and how you can start building it now!

Dallas,TX, June 1, 2006 - Too often I meet folks concerned about building bigger muscles and a smaller waistline, all the while neglecting the ultimate measure of their health - the strength of their immune system.

Addressing the habits required to build health from the “inside out” is essential for getting the best results from your fitness program, warding off illness and disease, and living a long, healthy life.

Immune System and Response

To achieve and maintain fitness results, our bodies must first be healthy. Vital to health are the body’s defense mechanisms against illness and disease called the immune system and immune response.

This system is the body's defense against infectious organisms and other invaders. It is made up of a network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to protect the body from harmful organisms that cause illness and disease.

Through a series of steps called the immune response the body recognizes and defends itself against bacteria, viruses, and substances that appear foreign and harmful to the body and cause disease.

Symptoms of Weakness

Being tired all the time, catching every cold or flu bug that comes along, and dealing with nagging allergies are all common symptoms of a weak a system – and often poor nutrition.

Because the Standard American Diet (S.A.D.) is so poor today, the average American meal has little to no real nutritional value. Food processing and manufacturing has made our food supply low in essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants required for building a strong immune system.

Allergies and Immune Response

Allergies are classified as disorders of the immune system. When a harmless substance such as dust, mold, or pollen is encountered by a person who is allergic to that substance, the system may react dramatically, by producing antibodies that "attack" the allergen (substances that produce allergic reactions).

The result of an allergen entering a susceptible person's body may include wheezing, itching, runny nose, and watery or itchy eyes, and other symptoms.

4 Keys to Immune Strength

Through both strengthening and balancing the immune system, better health can be achieved and allergies can be reduced and/or eliminated.

There are several keys to strengthening one’s immune system, including:

1. Choose organic foods: Organic foods have more nutrients than processed foods and provide more nutrients essential for health.

2. Eating fruits and veggies: Eating a diet high in fruits and vegetables provides a natural source of antioxidants and phytonutrients to keep the body’s defense levels high.

3. Keeping the body alkaline: Maintaining alkaline blood ph levels creates an internal environment where disease cannot survive.

4. Supplementation: Adding specific nutrients to the diet through supplementation< delivers proven results for building a strong system.

Nutritional Supplementation

Supplementing a healthy diet has been proven to support the body in building a strong immune system. Recommended nutrients include:

  • Vitamin C: Strong antioxidant properties that protects the body against free radicals and boosts the immune system to fight infection. Also a natural antihistamine.

  • Vitamin E: Powerful antioxidant that boosts immune response and protects against cell damage.

  • Alfalfa: Contains large amounts of chlorophyll, a natural antihistamine.

  • Garlic: A natural decongestant and antibiotic shown to have anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-viral properties.

    Conclusion

    Building a strong immune system is essential to not just achieving fitness goals, but ultimately improving lifelong health. Through nutrition and fitness, nagging symptoms can be reduced or eliminated completely.
